Taking Pictures of You
The Kooks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Each time that I close my eyes
I can feel you
I run away with my imagination
And I am blinded by your light
You fill up the room
Ooh whoa oh
I have a secret I need to tell you
Exquisite visions fill up my mind
Do you remember me?
Taking pictures of you as the light came through
You were running away
And I asked you for a place to stay
Do you remember me, taking pictures of you
Taking pictures of you
Now, I have a secret I need to tell you
I have been true, and I needed no clue
We live in such extraordinary times
Exquisite visions fill up my mind
Do you remember me?
Taking pictures of you as the light came through
You were running away
And you asked me for a place to stay
Do you remember me?
Taking pictures of you
Such a wonderful thing to do

I have a secret I want to tell you
I want to confide in you something personal
Each time that I close my eyes
Whenever I shut my eyes
I can feel you
I can sense your presence
I run away with my imagination
My thoughts carry me away
And I am blinded by your light
Your radiance is overwhelming
You fill up the room
Your influence dominates the space
Do you remember me?
Do you recall our past encounters?
Taking pictures of you as the light came through
Capturing memories of you when sunlight streamed in
You were running away
You were trying to escape
And I asked you for a place to stay
I requested your hospitality
Now, I have a secret I need to tell you
I must reveal something important
I have been true, and I needed no clue
My loyalty was unwavering without needing any hints
We live in such extraordinary times
The epoch we exist in is peculiar
Taking pictures of you
Photographing you is
Such a wonderful thing to do
An enjoyable and precious activity
